Classical music concert performed by the "La Scala" Quartet at the "Navalge" Theatre in Moena
Sounds of the Dolomites is a unique event. A music festival at high altitude that brings together musicians from all over the world in the most beautiful mountains of the Alps. The idea behind this initiative is simple: to combine the great passions for music, art and the mountains in a cycle of concerts under the banner of freedom and nature.
The Sounds of the Dolomites: Il Quartetto della Scala. Thursday 21 September at 5.30 p.m. at the "Navalge" Theatre in Moena
Programme: the "Scala" String Quartet was first formed back in 1953. The quartet has taken centre stage at prestigious musical events and recordings over the decades, with the face of the group gradually changing over time. For the Sound of the Dolomites, Francesco Manara and Daniele Pascoletti on violins, Simonide Braconi on viola and Massimo Polidori on cello will play together surrounded by the Fassa Dolomites. Performing during prominent concert events in Italy and abroad, the four musicians are dedicated to preserving the legacy of the historic "Quartetto d'Archi della Scala". They have collaborated with high-calibre pianists such as Bruno Canino, Jeffrey Swann, Angela Hewitt, Paolo Restani and Bruno Campanella as well as the likes of E. Pahud, E. Dindo and tenor J. Carreras. The group has also performed numerous premieres of works by contemporary composers including Boccadoro, Campogrande, Francesconi, Digesu, Betta and Vlad.
Free admission. Tickets will be distributed at the theatre box office from 3.30 p.m. until all seats are sold out.
